25 – Sax No End: Lost Charts, Live History, and the Final Word

The album closes as it began—with intent, history, and heart. Sax No End, originally played live at Ronnie Scott’s and witnessed by John Ellis himself, was long thought lost. But thanks to Ruben’s deep-dive transcription and a bit of musical archaeology, the DJA band was able to bring it back to life. From mystery suitcases to Mark White’s final snowflake of sound, this final track celebrates the powerful legacy of Francy Boland and a big band era nearly forgotten. A fitting closer to a monumental project—and a tribute to the man who inspired it all.
